This also reminds me when I used to go to the Huntington back in the 90's I would go indie morning before it opened. The reason was to experience some peace w/o the crowds & their noisy kids. I can see from the pics the situation hasn't gotten any better.

The Canadian family is so cute. Saw a sign on the side of the road recently. A marine construction company was advertising for sea walls, docks, boat lifts and also could provide Riff Raff! (aka as Rip Raf)

Bellis, we'll approve of any kind of bunny photo, disapproving or otherwise. I hope you do it soon, the blog is going to stop taking submissions in the near future as Queen Cinnamon is rather elderly and they're planning on winding things up.

And I love that tree, good looking riff raff in the foreground or not. But the riff raff adds a little je ne sais quoi, non?

well, it wasn't high tea coming out of my nose, but pellegrino sure does make a mess.

riff-raff indeed! one is surreptitiously taking a timed photograph of the one in flannel carrying pot, er A pot (of what??), while simultaneously chatting up a striped nun who is praying in the middle of the Huntington! Praying to what, one might ask, why, to the gods of the split tree, of course! Absolutely riff-raff!

The critters are cute--certainly cuter than the pea-hens that ran us off at the Arboretum! But the riff-raff...well worth a trip to the Gardens to see them!
